Bug Sync files between unix client and windows 2003 server

Hi everybody...

I want to sync files between unix client machine and windows 2003 server machine.
I thought of using Cygwin for windows server and then rsync between two to sync files, but have come to know that might be Cygwin will not be able to handle multiple clients request....

Can any body suggest me what to do....

Thanks
Lokesh

The PC server should be the master, right? It should initiate rsync commands to the unix boxes it serves.

Don't run rsync "realtime", every 30 minutes is often enough. Schedule rsync on a round-robin basis. If you have dozens of unix boxes, then run rsync less frequently so that each unix box has time to sync up.
